Apple CarPlay & Android Auto

Cars take a long time to develop -- years longer
than personal technology products. So, by the time you invest in a new Subaru, smartphone
technology is already lightyears past anything a infotainment system can do.
Subaru bridges the gap by offering Apple CarPlay and
Android Auto with its updated SUBARU STARLINK™
Multimedia system. These features bring smartphone capabilities directly into the
dashboard screen of your vehicle, allowing you to enjoy the very latest in
smartphone apps while driving the very latest in Subaru safety, capability, and
reliability.

How does Apple CarPlay work?

Apple CarPlay is a connectivity solution that
projects a similar iOS interface to your Subaru's infotainment system. You need
to have your iPhone with you in order to use Apple CarPlay. When you plus your
iPhone into your car, you can access many of the features and apps of your
iPhone via your car's dashboard screen without having to fumble around for your
phone. Your car can now access your iPhone's phone and message services, Apple
Maps, and iTunes music, as well as third-party apps like Pandora and
iHeartRadio. Only an iPhone 5 or newer devices are compatible for Apple CarPlay.

How does Android Auto work?

The Android Auto system provides a similar solution
for smartphone owners. It's the counterpart to Apple CarPlay, and it projects
Android apps onto the car's display when your phone is connected to the car via
USB. Android Auto provides access to apps such as Google Maps, Google Play
Music, and Google Now. You can also initiate searched using "OK
Google" commands for hands-tree access. Third-party apps are also
accessible.
